New, Local Real Estate Investment Club poised to turn REI Club world upside down

Austin, TX - October 25th 2012 - Local Real Estate Investing expert, 2012 Best Selling Author, and one of the most sought-after real estate investing educators in the country, Chris Goff, has broken the mold with his brainchild, AREI&ME CLUB. 

Upon returning to Texas from his travels as a Real Estate Educator with Trump EI, he decided to start a REI Club where fellow seasoned investors and budding entrepreneurs could meet to network, discuss a constantly changing Austin REI world, share stories, make valuable contacts, and learn from each other about wise Real Estate Investing and effective Marketing. Hence, the birth of AREI&ME Club... with new, relevant topics discussed in every meeting, this is a group where everyone- from seasoned investor to Realtor to budding entrepreneur- can learn something new. 

Chris knows the importance of putting the RIGHT people in place to make a Club fully benefit its members, and refused to settle for anything less than the best. He brought together a dynamic team of Austin’s best and brightest Realtor’s®, Educators, and Marketing experts to create AREI&ME CLUB. Together, they're turning the REI Club world upside down, and shaking out all of the old, moth-eaten practices of the past. NO more boring, lecture hall speakers and program peddlers. Get ready for REAL education, REAL networking, REAL excitement and REAL success!

From the moment you walk in the door of one of our AREI&ME Club meetings, you’ll see what sets us apart from all of the other REI clubs out there today. Don’t expect to come in and sit to listen to a boring lecture or high-pressure sales pitch! We'll have up to the minute knowledge of the world of REI, hands-on activities like LIVE phone calls to leads, member participating problem solving activities, LOCAL business professionals talking about the area that matters to you as an investor- your own, and fact-filled Q&A sessions to help you grow as a Real Estate Investor the RIGHT way. We have some exciting social events planned to promote one of the most important aspects of an REI club- networking, as well as intense, full day Strategy Specific Sessions and in-field bus trips geared to saturate you with knowledge about individual investment strategies. We've designed AREI&ME Club to be the one-of-a-kind experience that keeps you motivated and excited about investing in Real Estate. As seasoned investors know, it takes a balance of knowledge and motivation to be successful, just like in any field, and we're bringing you the best of both! 

This group focuses on what’s important to people struggling with the insecurities of a faltering economy- learning how to make money through intelligent investing, and providing themselves and their family with financial independence, and we do it with FLAIR! 

Slated to hold its first monthly meeting in a two-day Grand Opening Celebration, AREI&ME CLUB has very high expectations. Join us on Wednesday, November 7^th or Thursday, November 8^th from 6:30PM - 9:00PM at the Crowne Plaza hotel, conveniently located just off I-35 in Central Austin and get plugged into a fantastic group of like-minded people that will motivate you, help answer questions, and hold you accountable to succeed.

GOFF SYNERGY - 2 Brothers Re-Connect to Create the Biggest Opportunity for Beginner and Experienced Investors the Real Estate World has Ever Seen...

It all started 14 years ago, when my brother convinced me to purchase the Carlton Sheets Real Estate Program. After reading through it, I was totally confused about how to make money in real estate, but I was interested in learning more, and didn’t let the confusion stop me. I decided to pack up a U-haul and move to Texas where my brother lived, and we started doing real estate investing full time. Neither one of us had much knowledge or experience but we kept on plugging. Eighteen months later, I had officially closed 46 deals of my own. I was hooked!

While working together with my brother we set up 5 Real Estate investment offices across Texas and started training others how to successfully make money in real estate. The success that we had investing and teaching others caught the attention of some pretty important people, and in 2007, Steve went to work for one of the biggest names in Real Estate- Donald J. Trump. I followed in 2008, and we spent the next few years teaching thousands of people across the country how to make their financial dreams come true, using the same methods we had used. While Steve enjoyed teaching and speaking in a classroom setting, I found my niche in one-on-one teaching. My students were so successful and happy with their training, that I was asked to put together a program to teach the other educators my teaching methods.

Steve and I enjoyed our time working for Mr. Trump, learning as much along the way as we taught, but the entrepreneur’s heart is not content to work for ANYONE else for too long, and when the chance came for us to ‘fire our boss’, and be on our own again, we were both very happy!

Now, throughout History, brothers have been notorious for disagreeing, and we were no exception. While Steve wanted to build a bigger and better version of the business we had in Texas, and continue to teach and mentor budding real estate investors, I recognized the need for a new approach to the way Real Estate investing had been traditionally taught. I also wanted to focus on something that I feel is lacking in every other REI education company out there today- MARKETING education.

We each have been successful at the things we have chosen to focus on, and have found ourselves in the not terrible position of needing to expand in order to continue growing; each wanting to provide the complete spectrum of education for our clients.

SO, with a little help from both my wife and best friend, who together sat us down and gave us a friendly reminder of the synergy lesson -A whole is greater than the sum of its parts- my brother and I have merged our companies to bring you something that is ‘knock your socks off’ good.

Call it Goff Synergy, if you will. Call it whatever you want, really... but look out! Together we are a force to be reckoned with. Our clients are equipped with the most highly effective education and tools to have ever hit the world of Real Estate Investing, and since you certainly don’t want our clients as your competition, my advice to you is this.. BECOME ONE OF OUR CLIENTS!

We are conducting a FREE 2-Day Real Estate and Marketing Event in Arlington, TX on August 27th - 28th. Please Register before seats are full at: www.RealEstateAndMarketingEvent.com

6 Steps to Marketing Your Business

Marketing your business is just as important as perfecting your craft. Yet, it's the one thing that nobody teaches you how to do. You spend thousands of dollars on Real Estate Programs teaching you the craft but end up failing because you have failed to learn how to market the business that you just spent thousands of dollars learning.

Now... for the last 3 years training thousands of business owners from across the country working for Donald Trump, the TOP questions asked were these...

How do I market my business?
How do I generate more Buyers?
How do I build a Sellers List?
How do I sell properties fast?

Here's the answer, there are 6 Marketing Steps that you can use to market your business more effectively, generate more buyers, build a sellers list and sell properties fast.

Step 1 - The first step is identifying what your product or service is. Try to come up with a unique name for your product or service. Something new and fresh. Include what makes it different from other similar products in the name.

Example: If you sell golf balls -
Don't say - Golf Balls
Say - Rocket long golf balls

Step 2 - Use Benefits in your marketing.
One of the biggest lessons I learned was that people buy on emotion (Benefits) and justify the purchase with it's features. When selling real estate, this is extremely important.

Example: If you're selling your home -
Don't say - This home has a large back yard. Or, Large half-acre lot.
Say – Huge backyard, perfect for weekend football games with the guys and summer evenings spent catching fireflies with the kids!

Step 3 - Pains of not buying your product or service.
Using "pains" reminds your consumer of the constant pains they go through without your product.

Example: Location of a home.
Don't say - This home is in a perfect location.
Say - This home is conveniently located near shopping, ball parks, and major traffic veins, meaning less time spent commuting, and more time spent living!

Step 4 - Pile it On!
This is where you mention all of the features of your product or service. You want to mention as many as you can think of.

Example: Selling a Home
Mention the bedrooms, baths, square footage, and special features like premium flooring, cabinetry and fixtures.

Step 5 - Reason Why!
This is where you tell the consumer the reason why they need your product or service. Don't elaborate here because it may turn off a lot of people. Keeping it simple is always the best approach.

Example: Selling a Home!
I'm moving out of state and hate to let this beautiful home go.

Step 6 - Call to Action!
This is where you need to get people to call. You can have everything perfect in your marketing but if you fail to get them to call, you'll never make any money.

Examples: Call to Actions

Donald Trump Real Estate Expert does it Again! The Red Carpet Program is the Elite Coaching Program for Real Estate Investors, Beginner to Expert. Get Started Today with the Red Carpet Elite Program.

The Red Carpet elite program is so much more than just another coaching program. It has a lasting impact on the way you build a successful real estate business. The Red Carpet Elite Program is truly the result of years of hard work and driven by this obsessive attention to every detail. Now… Traditionally, coaching programs are designed around the actual Coach. But the problem is, is that when your coach tells you their plans for your future… You increase your opportunity for failure.

I figured out a way to develop a training program that will give you specific plans based on your goals, not mine! Allowing you to achieve maximum results.

In 1997 I started my career in real estate by myself… trying to figure it all out.

In 1999 I was officially a FULL Real Estate Investor.

In 2001 I officially closed 46 deals… using the help of my mentor.

In 2004 I began teaching other students how to achieve the same level of success.

In 2008 I became the Lead Trainer of Donald Trumps REI Education company. Teaching his mentors and coaches how to successfully train their students.

In 2011 – Is the biggest leap forward since my original trainings. Its called the Red carpet elite program. I’ve taken the last 14 years of experience, the thousands of students I trained and the hundreds of students I’ve personally worked with and have packaged Everything in the Red Carpet Elite Program.

It all starts with Finding out what your TRUE goals are, Your Level of Experience, Your Age, How much Time you have to dedicate to your new business, Your Passion and what motivates YOU.

If you’re like me, I want someone to educate me on the same playing field, not above my head or tell me to do things that don’t follow my goals. To insure your success, I must be able to KNOW you First. I’ve developed a special goal sheet that you will fill out and send back to me. This goal sheet gives me a precise understanding of your goals, and how you learn.

With this information, I can know help you develop a winning game plan to get your journey started. You now have a roadmap, direction, and all the information you’ll need to begin this profitable business. If you Start RIGHT, you can achieve so much more than most traditional investors can achieve in a lifetime.

The Red Carpet Elite program gives you 3 Days of LIVE Training with me… allowing you a hands-on experience. Nothing beats having visual hands on training. Your training can be in your own back yard or anywhere in the country. No need to figure out when, where and how. We schedule this around your schedule, giving you the absolute best time to invest in your future.

The red carpet elite 3-day in-field training will give you the best chance of speeding up the learning curve. Giving you a true look inside the ropes of the business. Evaluating neighborhoods, inspecting properties, building your power team members, structuring offers, in-person meetings with sellers, reviewing contracts and setting up closings. Learning it all right by my side. Your Confidence will jump leaps and bounds.

Your journey begins with the Red Carpet elite program, but it doesn’t stop there. You will need continued support as you follow the path of a successful real estate investor. You’ll have questions, you need a second set of eyes, and sometimes a kick in the butt. This is why we are giving you 6 Full Months of phone and email support with ME. You’re not going to speak with an hourly employee reading out of a book. Just ME! Because Your Success is ultimately my success.


Another thing that I’m really excited about with the Red Carpet elite program is our Launch Creation Kit.

Starting any business on the right foot requires that you look great. And.. what I mean by that is that you need to have a professional image, a look that will carry on for years to come. With the Red Carpet Elite program, we will design a company logo that will impress anyone. But it doesn’t stop here, you are not only going to have a custom professional logo, we are giving you 250 business cards to get you started. We will design the right business card for you and your business. The one that gets everyone’s attention.

We are also going to design 4 custom marketing plans for your properties. Your support isn’t just having a conversation with me. It’s about creating a specific marketing plan to help you sell your properties quickly so you can profit even sooner. Our marketing plans have proven to sell properties sooner and generating more profits per property. Our unique marketing methods will surely give you the confidence to sell what you just bought. Something not taught by many investors.

With our VIP Website design, you’ll have a stunning website that will blow you away.

The Red Carpet Elite VIP Website design gives you a unique graphic header, content based on your business with a pleasing and simple function for your visitors.  You are now able to market to the entire world thus increasing the amount of business you’ll receive. Combine this with 6 months of website management, you’re on your way to building a modern business with unlimited potential.

Just by having a website today isn’t good enough anymore. This is why we will set up an automated social marketing platform. Leveraging the 3 fastest growing sites on the web, Facebook, Twitter and Youtube. Funneling them back to your website. With our search engine friendly marketing, you’ll be on your way to the top of all the major search engines out there including Google, Yahoo, and Bing. This is really a giant leap forward for your business!

With the Red Carpet Elite Program, you don’t have to be tech savy, learn html code or even understand how to use a website or social media. We will automate everything for you keeping it simple.

We also added a HD Video Camcorder so you can easily create virtual tours of your properties and record inspections. You can also use it to record small presentations explaining to people about your business. Post them on your Youtube channel and your done!

The Red Carpet Elite Program is an ALL in One program designed to launch your real estate business faster… regardless of age, experience or the amount of time you can dedicate to it. But… Without compromising the latest technology for building your business for years to come. I think that The Red Carpet Elite program is one of the BEST coaching programs you’ll find that will speed up your success.
